'Satyana is very into dressing herself and everything has to be bright pink or purple. If it glows or is shiny that is even better. If you need sunglasses to look at her outfit, you know that’s a good outfit.'

Favorite role! The How I Met Your Mother actress said in an interview that she loves being a mom

Over the last year, she's discovered that two children is a lot harder than one.

'When I only had one, I thought I was busy, but now that time seems like a piece of cake,' Alyson said.

'I’m an only child so the biggest thing for me was making sure that Sati was ready and excited for a new baby sister.'

Meanwhile, she is gearing up for the end of How I Met Your Mother, which is airing its ninth and final season, to end this March.

The sitcom first aired in 2005, and Alyson has played Lily in the show ever since, opposite her on-screen husband Jason Segal, and with Josh Radnor, Cobie Smulders and Neil Patrick Harris.

'This last season is really bitter sweet,' she said. 'I will miss everyone for sure, but I’m glad we get to have a ninth season so that the writers can give the show the send-off it deserves.

'I love working in television and I am taking meetings and thinking about developing another show.'
